If thou in Truth abide thou art secure;
His Love thy footsteps guide, making them sure.
Love is thy fortress strong,
Thy refuge from all harm;
Thy God with outstretched arm, waiting to save.
Love shall deliver thee from every snare;
The pestilence shall flee far from thy prayer.
Lo! Love shall cover thee;
His wings shall shelter thee;
Truth shall thy buckler be, a sword and shield.
Love shall destroy thy fear, error shall flee;
When thousands perish near, hate harms not thee.
Within His secret Place
Thou shalt behold God's face,
The perfect Model's grace: Life, Truth, and Love.
Love's thoughts shall keep thee strong o'er stony ways:
And they shall be thy song through all thy days.
Passion and self shall be
Crushed under foot by thee;
And thou shalt victor be, through Christ's own word.
Truth answers to our call, and is with men;
Love is our All-in-all, Christ come again.
His Truth shall save mankind.
Heal lame, and halt, and blind;
God is the only Mind, and thou art free.
